About Me


Welcome to my space. My name is Janna Onyemaobi, I am a Nigerian and I am crazy about books. I can spend my day reading. I know what you might be thinking, and the answer is no, I am not antisocial, I am just someone who enjoys getting lost in stories. I write too.



So here is the question. What do I write about?

I write about anything and everything. 

I studied physiology in College of Medicine, University of Lagos, Lagos Nigeria. For those of you wondering what physiology is, do not worry, I got you. 

Physiology is a medical course, it is simply the science of life. So now, you might be wondering what someone one like me is doing here.

Writing is something I love doing, I write to relieve stress, I write when I am happy, I write when I am sad, I write when I am overwhelmed etc.

That is basically all about me. Now about this blog, what will I be doing here.

So basically, I will be posting my reviews on books and the lessons I learned from them. I will also post shorts stories and maybe even life experiences. This blog is a journey and I will love for you to join me.

Feel free to contact me, leave comments and interact with my blog posts.

I write about anything and everything 😉. I forgot to add, i actually studied physiology in the College of Medicine, University of Lagos, Lagos Nigeria. For those of you wondering what physiology is, don't worry, i got you 😉. Physiology is a medical course, it's simply the science of life.

His only wife - Peace Adozo Medie

https://rhbooks.com.ng/?ap_id=Jannaonyemaobi You can purchase this book from Rovingheights with the link above. His only wife is set in Ghana and it follows the story of a young seamstress, Afi who finds herself in an arranged marriage to the son of her family’s benefactor, Aunty. Aunty meets with Olivia (Afi’s mother) and proposes the marriage to her because she does not like Eli (Aunty’s son) current partner Muna. Muna is a Liberian woman who does not bend to Aunty’s wishes. Olivia can never really say no to Aunty because she has been the one helping her since her husband died. The book starts off with the traditional wedding of Afi and Eli. Eli is absent so his brother stands in for him as the groom. To me, this was the first red flag in the marriage because I don’t understand why a groom would miss his own wedding because of a business trip. After the wedding, Afi finds out that her marital life is not how she envisioned it to be and this leads her to a journey of self discovery. I...

Homegoing - Yaa Gyasi

https://rhbooks.com.ng/?ap_id=Jannaonyemaobi You can purchase Homegoing from rovingheights with the link above. Homegoing is a historical fiction set back in the Gold Coast which comprises of the Ashanti and the N orthern  territories (present day Ghana). This book is about the stories of two half sisters and their descendants up until the 8 th  generation. One of the sisters is married to a British governor and the other is sold into slavery. Copyright: This image is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution It is divided into two parts, the first part takes place in Ghana and the second part takes place in America. One remarkable thing about homegoing is the slave trades that took place in the Cape Coast castle. Slaves were captured and kept in the dungeon  until they were sold. This really struck me because prior to this book, I had no idea that the Ghanaian ancestors  went through this. Maybe it is because I am not from Ghana but then I am African so I g...
